Long's Group

Long, aged 46, is the mother of six children, two of whom are still in school. For the past 11 years, Long and her husband have made a living through farming rice. Their current business earns them about 29,000 KHR per day and they are able to save about 20,000 KHR daily for future needs. This is Long's second loan from Kiva’s partner, VisionFund. She is now leading her group to request a loan. As the leader, Long is going to use her portion to buy fertilizers and pesticide for her farmland and to pay for labour. She hopes to produce larger crops to sell for a good price to improve her family’s standard of living.
